Togo is from Tokai, same age and university as Amano (Junior World Champion + Kodokan Winner 2023). In 2021 he won the インターハイdefeating Amano and Izawa (both went to the Junior Worlds last year). In last year's Kodokan he finished 3rd, losing to Amano in the semifinal, and the same thing happened in the All Japan Juniors (finished 3rd, lost to Amano in the semifinals). We'll probably see more of him in the Senbatsu.

[@syn3rgyz]

Glad they are finally clamping down on the head diving and being at least mostly consistent on the calls

[@goftm4058]

Bout Bosnia & Herzegowina: If u r familiar with Yugoslavia (or Former republic of ...). Yugoslavia was created after WW2, Panslavism means unite all slavs in one Nation. Like this they did under President Tito who could hold it together. But because of many discrepancies it become clear, that this wouldnt last forever and so Yugoslavia fell apart/got separated step by step - beginning in 1991. First Slovenia, then Croatia (Both had better finances) wanted independence. Serbia (president Slobodan Milosevic wanted to create "Big Serbia), which had bad finances, but the army, wanted to stay united and declared war on them. Step by step, Yugoslavia fell apart to 7 countries. Bosnia including Herzegovina (a region well known in History, which hasnt been equal from rights at that time), Montenegro, North Macedonia & Kosovo as newest, which i´m sure u have heard of. Like Otto Bismarck 1815-1898 (German chancellor) said: The Balkans, where europe is fragile the most.

[@matej7501]

Dude, you haven't heard of Bosnia? :D The war and all that?

[@JudoHighlights2015]

I’ve heard of Bosnia, just not the rest of the name. The hell is that? Lol. But yeah my geography is bad. I could tell you all the prefectures of Japan but some parts of Europe are pretty vague

[@czebemarci]

​@@JudoHighlights2015 But you're kiwi right, based on the accent? Just living in JPN?

[@tommyrq180]

No problem not knowing this. The Balkan nations are hard to keep track of. It’s one country (seceded from Yugoslavia after end of the Cold War in 1992), typically called Bosnia, but in fact is formally The Republic of Bosnia & Herzegovina (sometimes Bosnia-Herzegovina), the latter a southern mountainous province pronounced “hurt-suh-go-VEE-nuh. Formally established in the Dayton Peace Accords in 1995 after much internecine warfare, the capital being the well-known, beautiful city of Serajevo. That city was the site of the 1984 Winter Olympics, but infamously also the place where Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated in 1914, precipitating World War 1. Love the fact that you just admit you don’t know it-not a problem. 😊

[@JudoHighlights2015]

that's right@@czebemarci

[@euanmorse]

That turnover seems to be used by EVERYONE now.

[@JudoHighlights2015]

Hand through the belt and butterfly hooks?

[@euanmorse]

@@JudoHighlights2015 Yes, that one. Mind you, given the poor level of Newaza defence at the highest level I'm not surprised...

[@milanojudo]

It's been around for a while Sugoi Uriarte used to beat a lot of ppl with it

[@euanmorse]

Oh, I know. It's just particularly popular now. @@milanojudo

[@syn3rgyz]

​@@euanmorse Poor level??? Lol let me guess it doesn't look like BJJ so it's poor level. "Just pass the guard bro"

[@tyrell1354]

Esposito you are the pride of our Italy! we have so many little beasts to be awakened here

[@jamesnapier3802]

Simply bad ref.
